Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs

If you find yourself with some extra hard-boiled eggs this weekend here’s a different (and a pretty sophisticated) way to use them up, rather than just having your typical deviled eggs. Personally, I am a huge fan of deviled eggs. And don’t get me wrong, there is nothing not to love about a classic deviled egg. But there is no harm in switching things up now and again. And these smoked salmon deviled eggs are fabulous!

But first you have to make really perfect hard-boiled eggs. Perfect hard-boiled eggs should have fully cooked whites but they should not be rubbery. The yolks should be set all the way through but still have a touch of creaminess to them. And by no means should they have a disgusting green ring around the yolk.

A perfectly cooked hard-boiled egg is a thing of joy.

Here’s how to make perfect hard-boiled eggs:

Carefully place a dozen eggs in a large stock pot and cover with 1 inch of cold water.  Be sure to not over-crowd the eggs. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the eggs begin to “dance” a bit on the bottom of the pot, cover the pot and let boil for 30 more seconds. Turn off the heat and set a timer for 14 minutes. After 14 minutes, use a slotted spoon and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking.

Keep in mind that really fresh eggs are difficult to peel. Use eggs that are 1 -2 weeks old for best results. And since you’re going to be eating these eggs, you should always use cage free, pastured eggs (such as Nature’s Yoke).
